Hi everyone. I'm new to the site, currently an attorney in NJ but am just waiting on my background to clear for U.S. Customs & Border Protection Officer. I've been lurking for a while and have picked up a ton of useful info and I thought I might as well join in the fun.

Thanks,
Whereabouts in the UK are you if I may ask? My father worked in the steamshipping industry and we lived in Northwood outside of London from 79-82. We loved the area but there were only 3 TV stations and one was in Welsh a good portion of the time which kind of stinks when you're a kid and want to watch your cartoons

Message sent re location. S4C is a fine Welsh channel. The only language in the world that changes the international standard word FAX to FFACHS is worth watching. They have a prgressive Chief Constable. He can be safely described as a character

There is no way that FFACHS is actually a Welsh word....it has nowhere near enough consecutive consonants:D.

I'm currently in Bergen County but most likely will be moving south in the near future (CBPO job will be in Philly if I get it). I'd love to get out of here altogether but I married a Jersey girl so I guess I'm stayin :D.

Before you debate the law with me or another officer, make sure you have a "firm" grasp of the english language and try researching it, quoting it, or something else valid instead of "Well I heard that...."
Someone needs to come up with something else witty to quote...

Welcome to RP! Been to NJ once on a biz trip for about 2 hours total. Didn't see enough of it I don't think.
